The self-love buried in her sandy brown eyes
Waiting for the wind to settle down
To have a clear vision of who she is
She's growing a deep rooted tree embedded with self-doubt
Only if she knew her tears are watering the tree
Strengthening her biggest rivalry

Muffled screams

Music brings this chilling feeling.
I talk alone to my white ceiling.
Their invasion feels like silent stealing.
I crack and break as my walls keep peeling.
Is this sensation truly healing?

Growing down

scars mark my wrists like visible stains

the stubborn remains of my pain ridden days

young me, oh so free, my innocent reign

forgotten, so rotten, while my inside decays

Bree17 Feb 27

Breath;

Silent battles within my head,
dread.

An endless pressure in my heart.
Depart,

From me, you soulless beast.
Feast,

on what you do not own.
Alone,

I feel my chest heave;
breathe,

but I can never shout,
worn-out.

Echo Verse

Shifting seasons

The warmth of summer's first kiss?
Bliss,

is the absence of winter’s cold fist.
Resist,

undermining your power,
flower.

Rejoice in spring's free breeze.
Freeze,

and enjoy this moment’s endeavor,
forever.

Echo Verse

oh mama

It’s a heavy weight to carry,
This life you gave me,
In exchange for your own.
I don’t mean to be ungrateful
when I sob to you
“I don’t want to keep on living either”
